Introducing Ms Clare Hornabrook

We’re delighted to welcome Ms Hornabrook to the Nursery team.

Job title: Nursery Practitioner

Where did you work before?

I was a Learning Support Assistant at John Ray Junior school, supporting a boy in year 6 who is type 1 diabetic.

Why did you decide to become a Nursery Practitioner?

Growing up I was an only child, so I looked forward to family gatherings with my younger cousins. As I was the oldest, I enjoyed planning activities and games to play. So, I knew from a young age that I wanted to work with children.

If you hadn’t become a Nursery Practitioner, which career would you have chosen instead?

My dream job as a child was to become a dancer in the West End! I loved dancing, and still enjoy it, but now I tend to watch it rather than doing it!!!!

Which aspect of your job do you enjoy the most? / What are you looking forward to most in your new role?

I enjoy working with children as I love watching them grow, achieve and gain confidence. I am looking forward to going back to a more nurturing role.

Who would you most like to have as a pupil if you could pick anyone?

I would choose Ed Sheeran as my pupil!! I am a big fan!

How do you relax away from work?

To relax I love walking my dog (Albie) and watching my favourite TV show (FRIENDS).
